verse 1
He was a boy, she was a girl, can I make it any more obvious?
He was a punk, she did ballet, what more can I say?
He wanted her, she'd never tell, secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose.
They had a problem with his baggy clothes...

chorus
He was a skater boy, she said "see you later boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face but her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth

verse 2
Five years from now, she sits at home feeding the baby, she's all alone
She turns on TV, guess who she sees? Skater boy rockin' on MTV,
She calls up her friends, they already know
And they've all got tickets to see his show
She tags along, stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down

chorus
He was a skater boy, she said "see you later boy",
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a super star, slammin' on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

bridge
Sorry girl but you missed out, well, tough luck that boy's mine now
We are more than just good friends, this is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see, see the man that boy could be
There is more than meets the eye, I see the soul that is inside

verse 3
He's just a boy and I'm just a girl, can I make it any more obvious?
We are in love, haven't you heard how we rock each others world?

chorus
I'm with the skater boy, I said "see you later boy
I'll be back stage after the show
I'll be at the studio, singing the song we wrote
About a girl you used to know"
I'm with the skater boy, I said "see you later boy
I'll be back stage after the show
I'll be at the studio, singing the song we wrote
About a girl you used to know"
This song is from the album "Musical Bases", "Let Go [20th Anniversary Edition]" and "Let Go".
